The 38 Best Restaurants in Taipei | Eater
"Taiwan’s ultimate comfort food is undoubtedly lu rou fan, a steaming bowl of rice topped with a generous scoop of fatty, glistening, minced braised pork. Perfecting this single dish has been Jin Feng’s claim to fame, as evinced by the ubiquitous line of hungry patrons waiting outside the humble canteen. It typically serves as the foundation of a meal that includes a galaxy of side dishes, including steamed greens, braised egg, and tofu slices. But the lu rou fan is always the star. The best versions, like Jin Feng’s, have a precise proportion of fat to lean meat; the pork should be tender enough to melt into the bed of rice below, saturating it with oily swirls of soy sauce, cinnamon, and star anise. Those searching to up the hedonism can opt for an accompanying slab of uber-fatty braised pork belly. [$]" - Clarissa Wei
